Black and white wedding outfit - can I throw in another colour?

I'm going to a wedding next week. My outfit is a black and white dress, black shoes and hat. I know it's dull but I'm skint so I'm jazzing up the dress I wore to dd's christening. My mother, knowing the Irish weather has suggested a wrap but now thinks that white or black is too dull and I should have another colour entirely, red or pink or something but I think you'd need something else in that colour to tie it in.
